Reading about the Green Man makes me think of the Jordancon costume contest. Look for him in these pics: http://bit.ly/fovZdiBRANDON SANDERSON
One of the Forsaken attacks Lan. Nynaeve's response: Charge in with a knife. That always amused me.BRANDON SANDERSON
Also, the foreshadowing in this sequence is brilliant. The Green Man speaks of things that become important thousands of pages away.BRANDON SANDERSON
No, I'm not going to tell you what the VOICE at the end of The Eye of the World was. Lots of people like to ask, though.BRANDON SANDERSON
Rand, at the end of Eye of the World. "Oh, I won't ever touch it again. Not if I have to cut my hand off, first."BRANDON SANDERSON
The book ends with a short Moiraine viewpoint. That makes four VPs in this book by my count. Rand, Nynaeve, Perrin, Moiraine.Tags

Interview: Oct 19th, 1998
Barnes and Noble Chat (Verbatim)Phoenix from Chico, CA
Mr. Jordan: First, congratulations on your new book. I'm absolutely dying to read it, and I'm sure it will be as awesome as the rest. My question regards The Eye of the World: Near the end of the book Rand hears a voice that vibrates his skull with its intensity. Was that the Creator talking to him? I believe the voice even said, "I will take no part..."Robert Jordan
Read and find out. Ain't I a stinker?Tags

Interview: Mar, 2000
Letter to Paul Ward (Verbatim)Paul Ward
Possible question: Is the Dark One pure True Power? Why does the Creator ignore Randland except to talk to Rand at the end of The Eye of the World?Robert Jordan
No, the Dark One is not pure True Power. Who says the Creator takes little interest in the activities of mankind? And I will neither confirm nor deny that the Creator spoke to Rand.Paul Ward
Neither confirm nor deny? What's up with that?Tags

Interview: Jan 18th, 2003
COT Signing Report - Tallis (Paraphrased)Robert Jordan
Rand has no direct connection with the Creator. The Creator is completely removed from the world; aside from...creating...the Pattern, he does nothing else whatsoever to influence anything.Tallis
(I'm uncertain how this fits with the ending of The Eye of the World.)Tags

Interview: Jul 11th, 2010
Chat with Brandon Sanderson (Verbatim)Stefan
So we know in The Eye of the World, there was somebody who talked in capital letters like how the Dark One did. Obviously you can't tell us who it was, but will we know by the end of A Memory of Light?Brandon Sanderson
I know what that was about. Will it be in the next book? Er...RAFO. Sorry.
STEFAN
Will we know by the end of the series though?
BRANDON SANDERSON
I really can't say yes or no. This is one of the things Harriet has asked me to be very quiet about.

Interview: Dec 2nd, 2010
4th Age Podcast Interview with Team Jordan (Verbatim)Mark
Okay. So, I got a question that actually goes all the way back to the very beginning of the series.Maria Simons
Mkay.
MARK
Will we ever find out whose voice it was at the end of The Eye of the World?
MARIA SIMONS
[pause] [in a sing-song voice] RAFO! (ray-foe)
JENNIFER LIANG
Yeah, that's a RAFO. (raffo)
MARIA SIMONS
Score!
MARK
I figured, but I had to ask.
MARIA SIMONS
I wondered how long it would take.
ALAN ROMANCZUK
Maria and I have spent some time trying to figure out different ways to say 'read and find out', so we're going to be trying out some of them today, and we'll see how it goes.
VIRGINIA
Oh, great.
SPENCER POWELL
Oh, this will be fun. Let me see if I can get you another trial run here. Um...Asmodean? [laughter]
ALAN ROMANCZUK
Who's he?
MARIA SIMONS
Yeah. Who's that guy?
VIRGINIA
He's toast, that's who he is.
SPENCER POWELL
No, Sammael's toast.
ANDREW GELOS
Yeah, I was going to say.
VIRGINIA
Well, I think he is too.
MARIA SIMONS
Um, if anybody sees the back of my car, they will see that I killed Asmodean. That's all I'm gonna say. [laughter]
MARK
I thought it was Bela!
JENNIFER LIANG
I do like the 'Bela killed him' theory. That one is just insane enough to be true.
MARIA SIMONS
I like that Bela is the Neigh'blis. [laughter]
VIRGINIA
Yeah.
JENNIFER LIANG
Terrible puns are always a good thing.
VIRGINIA
I love it.
MARIA SIMONS
And the master of the terrible pun is on this call.
VIRGINIA
Ahh.
MARIA SIMONS
In Jim's office.
JENNIFER LIANG
Ahhhh.
VIRGINIA
Well feel free. [laugher]
ALAN ROMANCZUK
I am, I am.
VIRGINIA
Pun away. Well, we've got two...you pronounce it 'raffo', right? Not 'rayfo'?
MARIA SIMONS
I say 'rayfo'. I don't know that there's a real pronunciation for that one.
ALAN ROMANCZUK
She says 'raffo', I say 'rayfo', so let's call the whole thing off.
VIRGINIA
Yeah, well we got two right off the bat. I don't know what else we're going to....well, probably everything.

Interview: Feb 8th, 2013
AMOL Signing Report - DJ Stipe (Paraphrased)Question
The Dark One seems to be conscious and aware of the events in the world. Is the Creator also conscious of world events?
Brandon Sanderson
Brandon said that's left up to the reader. He then said that many people think the voice in all caps in The Eye of the World is the Creator, which might indicate the Creator was, but stated it really wasn't known even in-world.

Question
So, at the end of The Eye of the World, the all caps voice? Will we ever find out who it was, or what they were looking for?
Brandon Sanderson
The all caps voice at the end of Eye of the World makes an appearance in A Memory of Light.
Question
What about what wasn't there?
Brandon Sanderson
What's that?
Question
What about what wasn't there?
Brandon Sanderson
What do you mean, what wasn't there?
Harriet McDougal
[laughter]
Brandon Sanderson
Maybe it'll be in the encyclopedia. I can still RAFO things, Harriet is working on an encyclopedia of The Wheel of Time, which is coming out maybe in two years or so.
Harriet McDougal
Yeah.
